In the year 61,00,003 BC (on a Thursday), the aging tribal leader announces his reluctance to be a burden on the rest of the herd. He declared that every dinosaur, upon reaching their 72nd birthday, should be hurled into a tar-pit. Thus Hurling Day was born. When asked if guys could use Hurling Day as an excuse to get rid of their mother-in-laws, the chief sagely replied, "Sure, why not?"

Though identified only as "Dinosaur Chief" in the credits, Ethyl Phillips claims that this wise dinosaur was Bob LaBrea, indicating that Robbie'shigh school was named in his honor.

Trivia

He is the only dinosaur character on the show to have hair (a long beard).
